    ...BK, the bit you quoted clearly refers to people who know their own religion well and know little about *other* religions.

      And, your point, again is what?

      Christianity has been the *other* religion for me.

        And now that you've found it, do you think you know a lot about other religions?

          Way to miss my very-clearly stated point that it's rather odd to believe someone who has actual "in-depth knowledge" of a religion would therefore still not know basic facts about their own faith when compared to a non-believer.

          I'm not sure why you are directing this one at me.
          I never mentioned you or directed anything at you, you narcissistic ******.

            Moreso than when it was the *other*.

            As for Boris,

            Too easy, Al.
            You said that to Al after he referred to me. So yeah, of course I'm going to assume that you were talking about me in that statement when you bloody well just said it.

                    I got the Amerocentric great awakening question wrong.
                    Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
                    The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.

                      I think Solomwi and Jon Miller are the only ones to get that one right.

                      While I was familiar with the sinners in the hands of an angry god! stuff I thought Jonathon Edwards was a bull**** answer because of the psychic. I had picked Charles Finney who was a figure in the SECOND Great Awakening.

                      Also, apparently the Jewish Sabbath is on Friday? My whole life I thought it was Saturday.

                      Muslim holy day is Friday, Jewish is Saturday, and Christian is Sunday. Guess I've been wrong my whole life

                      EDIT:

                      Well damn... Friday at sun-down to Saturday night. Man that's Saturday! Yes, I get the question asks when does the Jewish sabbath START but still man... that's a trick question.

                          First great awakening was a movement in the 1700s colonial america, if memory serves, which gave birth to a lot of nutty religious schisms.

                          • Second Great Awakening is more famous though I think. It's referenced in Huck Finn, I think, or was that just the temperance movement the Duke and King defraud? I don't remember and can't be bothered to look it up.

                            However, Huck Finn

                            Though I'm sure it offends Alby's refined racial sensibilities.

                              I think it is more wow transubstantiation was one of the major points during the Protestant Reformation and so it is shocking dumb ****s still don't understand that issue.

                              • My denomination started from the Second Great Awakening, so I know a lot more about that.
